[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Legally she cannot sue you because employment is at will and is a civil matter and most people do not take the time and effort to go into a court of law to sue. They are too busy searching for a replacement and scrambling for childcare.

If this lady was good to you, then I think you should do all that you can for her to help her find someone else. Do you have someone responsible and trustworthy you can recommend, even temporary while she searches for someone long-term? To leave her high & dry as a nurse will be an extreme hardship for her OP.

Is there any way you can stay a little while longer?[/quote]

Op here.

Thanks for your reply! at most I can stay two weeks but then I really have to get home.[/quote]

Ok, so if you can stay 2 weeks then stay 2 weeks.  I'm not sure what your point of posting was unless you just wanted to hear people tell you that you are doing the right thing and too bad for your NF.

I don't think most people will fault you for doing what you need to do for your own family.  Your obligation is to them first, then your NF, and that's fine.  Whether you meant it that way or not, your post was kind of critical of your MB for being upset that she needs to find a replacement for you on short notice.  Your post was asking what you could do to make it better but in all your follow-up posts you basically said there was nothing you could do, so why did you ask?  That is why it just seems like you are looking for people to agree with you that your MB overreacted and you should just go and not look back.

I think the situation just sucks for everyone.  It sucks for you that you have a family emergency and have to leave and it also equally sucks for your NF that they only have 1 week to scramble to find reliable and trustworthy nanny care.  It doesn't matter how much money they have, it still takes time (not money) to find a good and trustworthy person to take care of your child.  And it's not the same as just having backup care, that's for a week or less if your nanny is sick or takes vacation (and you usually have more than 1 week notice when a nanny takes vacation).  So while you need to do what you need to do just accept that it is hard for your NF now too.[/quote]

This is perfect - I agree with every word.[/quote]
